Over shirt

Yes, I recommend this

Very nice shirt, lovely deep chocolate colour. Big enough to slip over t shirt like a jacket. It’s washed well and is comfy to wear.

Versatile summer pop on shirt

Yes, I recommend this

Very easy to wear and versatile shirt top. Sadly short on the sleeve length for me and didn’t want to have to wear it rolled up as uncomfortable.

Fantastic value

Yes, I recommend this

I bought this as a beach shirt for an up and coming holiday . I liked the look but wasn’t sure what it would be like as i usually pay more for similar items . I was amazed at how lovely the material is for the price, and I would wear this on other occasions with a skirt or jeans no problem . I haven’t washed ir worn yet but I’m very hopeful

Too long

No, I don't recommend this

This shirt is honestly lovely and I really like it but I could only really see myself wearing it over a bikini or swimsuit on holiday. I’m 5”6 and it comes halfway down my thighs.

Good choice

Yes, I recommend this

Great fabric, in look, feel and ‘swing’. Great colour depth too. Can be used informally, on the beach (I’m guessing at that one!), and a bit more formally. Very roomy though, so remember that.

A lovely versatile shirt

Yes, I recommend this

I haven’t worn yet as bought this in both colours for my holiday in June. But looking to wear either on the beach as a cover up to go to the restaurants for lunch, or on boat trips as a cover up to stop getting burnt, but could also wear in the evenings with trousers. I had a few shirts like this last year in three colours but was a larger person then, so needed to replace. Only downfall this is only in brown or white, last year, although different material had several colours to choose from.

At least two sizes too big

I am 5'7" tall and usually take a size 12. In this case 12 was too big (wide) although the long length suited me. I returned it and reorder a size 10. This was also too wide, but better than the 12, however the sleeve length was only just the right length, and I thought a size 8 may have even shorter, so I kept it. The overall quality seems to be good. It is really annoying you are not allowed to do an exchange, but have to reorder and wait for a refund!

Fit on the large size.

The Fit is on the large size, arrived C and C in very screwed up condition, required ironing just to try on. Loved the colour and the shirt will be suitable for many casual occasions. What a shame the packing was so carelessly.

Good shirt for the price.

Yes, I recommend this

The material is thicker than I expected, and its quite long in length. It would be good as a beach cover up or worn open over a tee.

Just the ticket

Yes, I recommend this

Always wanted a bikini cover up. This is just the ticket and the right length for me being a tall lady. Much better quality than in other 'popular' shops. My only issue is that I have to stop myself buying it again in the other colour!

Way too long even though I ordered the petite size

No, I don't recommend this

I always order the 'petite' length for trousers like this in M&S and never had a problem until this item. I bought it for a holiday and only had this option, so rather than returning, I had to pay and get it fixed at the tailor. I am 5'4 and still had to get it cut at least 10cm.

Great over shirt or beach wear

Defiantly beach wear but I like to use with a vest underneath, for a cool cover up. They come very big. I’m generally a 16 but ended up with size 12 which was a much more flattering look.

Perfect for summer holidays

Yes, I recommend this

Originally ordered in my more usual size 14, but re-ordered in a 12, as it is comes up large. I am tall and the sleeves and long length work for me. Am planning to wear the shirt as a light weight cover up over a swimsuit etc. on holiday and it seems ideal for this. Not yet washed. Hopefully no shrinkage. Affordable addition to my summer wardrobe.
